Abstract

System and method for treating scrubber and ballast wastewater at the same time. The method includes mixing ballast and scrubber wastewater to make a suspended solid concentration or turbidity of the obtained wastewater mixture constant, the scrubber wastewater produced by bringing exhaust gas and scrubber washing water into contact with each other in a scrubber; adding magnetic powder to the wastewater mixture; and magnetically separating magnetic flocs obtained in the adding. The system includes a mixer that mixes ballast and scrubber wastewater to make a suspended solid concentration or turbidity of the obtained wastewater mixture constant, the scrubber wastewater produced by bringing exhaust gas and scrubber washing water into contact with each other in a scrubber; a magnetic powder adding device that adds magnetic powder to the wastewater mixture obtained by the mixer; and a magnetic separator that magnetically separates magnetic flocs obtained by the magnetic powder adding device.
